Capture Your Heart

Chapter 298 Ending of the Story 13

That night, Emmanuel stays in the study all night. The next day, the housekeeper finds that he has committed suicide by taking poison. By the time William rushes to the study, his father's body has been cold. “Bang!” He once again falls to his knees in front of his father in grief and lets out a loud cry.

He asks himself in his heart, “Even so, don’t you regret it?”

The housekeeper hands him a piece of white paper with his father's last words written on it, “A evil thought ends up in rebellion. Don't blame yourself. I deserve all the blame.”

It is late autumn. A pile of dark-gray clouds hang on the sky domineeringly, making the earth depressing. The endless forest in the cemetery have long been bare. And the old trees stand there gloomily with moss covering the wrinkles on its body.

Emmanuel’s funeral is held quietly. Besides the ones from the Charlie family, no outsiders attend it. Wearing black clothing, they silently bow their heads in mourning. As the wind blow by, they feel bone- chilling coldness, thinking that the winter this year seems to come a little earlier than previously.

Karin stands at the end of the crowd line. At the sight of William standing in the forefront, she feels inexplicably sad in her heart.

After the funeral, seeing his wife looking grave, Troy looks back at the man standing in front of Emmanuel’s grave and says thoughtfully, "Go and comfort him."

"Is that okay?"

"Of course, it is. I'll go back first and have the driver come pick you up later."

After Troy finishes his words, he leaves the cemetery.It is raining lightly. Karin walks step by step towards the despondent back-view.

Although Karin wants to say a lot of things, she finds that she actually can say very little. At this time, any words will seem feeble. So she’d better not say anything.

Understanding William’s sadness and comforting him with silent words is the only thing she can do for him. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

"Can I rest on your shoulders for a moment?" He speaks hoarsely, "Just for a minute."

Karin, who is stunned, nods grimly, "Okay."

William slowly turns around and leans his head on her shoulder, venting off multiple layers of emotions pent up in his heart instantly. He cries like a child, crying brokenheartedly. Karin's eyes turns red as she senses his sad mood. She pats his back, chokes, and says, "However sad and disappointed you are, don’t lose faith in life. Everyone get through the difficulties like this. We all learn to grow up as we are injured. After the day when we all have gray hair comes, we won’t be injured anymore. And that proves that we have finally grown up."

William cries for a long time. He has been crying for more than a minute. Some people, always like to shed a lifetime of tears in a day.

The two of them go separate ways after they part with each other. Karin gazes at William who sees her off first from the rear-view mirror. And she, who has been holding herself back from crying for a long time, finally bursts out crying. She wants to tell him that she feels sorry for him as well. She feels sorry for him not because she loves him. Instead, she feels sorry for him because he had been a foster child, the fact that he has been orphaned like Troy, and the fact that he had spent ten years loving two women and that neither of them loves him. She feels more distressed for him because he sent his father to hell so that he could be true to his heart…

Ever since that day, William has disappeared. No one knows where he has gone. In the vast world, there probably is always a place where he can start over.

After the storm, it is time to fulfill their promise. Troy and Karin decide to go to London to pick up their daughter. However, no one expects that a time-bomber lurking in his body kicks off at this time.

The two of them arrive at the airport. Before they can go through the security check, a sudden spinning pain hits Troy. Troy feels that his eyes go black. And he collapses in the airport lobby.

Karin screams and calls out in a panic, "Husband? Honey? What's wrong with you? What's wrong with you? Don't you scare me!"

With the help of the airport staff, Troy is quickly sent to the nearest hospital. During the long process of waiting for the test result, Karin feels that her heart has been always gripped together. She doesn’t know how many times she has to go through hardships in her life before she can reach the so-called happy life. But there is one thing she is sure of, that is, God won’t take away the one that makes her happy anymore.

The one that makes her happy has many injuries and traumas on his body. Even he is given to God, she believes that God won’t accept him...

"Karin, how is Troy?"

"Madam, how could Young Master Troy faint? He's always in good health. Huh?"

"Was there anything unusual about him when you went out this morning?"

...

The questioning from all directions bewilders her. And now she is eager to know what is wrong with Troy as well...

Twenty minutes later, the doctor who examines Troy comes out. And he asks with a poker face, "Has the patient suffered a serious injury on his head? Such as a gunshot wound?"

Robert asks worriedly, "Yes. Is his situation worse?"

"After our preliminary diagnosis, it is a gunshot wound that has left side-effects on him after he doesn’t properly recuperate, causing brain damage. He has to do an operation. Otherwise, he will be in a life- threatening situation."

"Now?"

"Two days at the latest. The longer you delay it, the worse the situation will be for the patient."

"And is there any risk in the surgery?"

Karin clenches her fists, trying hard to make herself accept this fact.

"Compared with putting his life in danger, the possibility of his memory loss is a little higher."

“Amnesia…”

Her heart begins to ache when she hears this word.

"How is the probability of his memory loss?"

"80%."

Lily jumps up in anxiety, "How come the possibility be so high? Isn't that the same as that he surely will lose his memory?"

"It's not necessarily true. It varies from person to person depending on the condition. Some patients won’t lose their memory if they are strong-willed. While some patients may choose to lose their memory to forget everything because they have experienced too much pain."

Milan walks to Karin and softly comforts her, "Don't worry. Troy has always been strong-willed, especially when it comes to his feelings for you."

Lily hurriedly echos, "Yes, yes."

They all know that the one who is most upset now is Karin.

"Please arrange the surgery as soon as possible."

She holds back her heartache and looks straight at the doctor. In fact, no one needs to comfort her. Because nothing is more important than keeping Troy alive to her.

The surgery date is finally set at ten o'clock at tomorrow morning. Troy wakes up at noon. After learning about his surgery, he doesn’t say anything to anyone on the scene except Karin. He says, "I'm sorry."

Others probably don't know what his words means. But Karin gets his point. Because he said he wouldn't make her suffer anymore. But now he's making her sad again.

Therefore, he feels that he owes her.

That afternoon, Troy insists on going back to Ziteng Garden. He agreed to have the surgery. But on the days before the surgery, he doesn’t want to stay in the hospital.

Karin accompanies him back to the mountain. On the way back, the two of them are silent. After they arrive at the door, she forces a smile and says, "Don’t overthink it. It is just a small operation. You, who have passed so many hurdles, surely can overcome this."

Troy tidies up the hair at her temples in distress and says warmly, "I'm okay. You don't have to pretend to be strong to comfort me."

The sound of footsteps comes from the front. the two look up. Yuma tearfully walks to Troy, holds his hand with one hand of hers, and chokes, saying, "Young Master. Lady in heaven will bless you. You will be fine."

"Well, I know, thanks."

Seeing that Yuma is carrying a suitcase in her hands, Karin asks in confusion, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to pray for Young Master at T Temple at the foot of the mountain. When he recovers, I'll be back ......"

After Yuma finishes her words, she turns around and runs down the mountain. Troy pulls her back in a hurry, "No need. I understand your feelings. Those are superstitions. You are doing so for heart comfort."

"Even if it is a psychological comfort I still want to go there!"

Yuma stubbornly breaks away from his hands. As Troy wants to say something, Karin stops him, "Let her go. She just wants to do something for you."

She holds his arm, walks into the garden, and walks into the living room. After Troy sits down on the sofa, she squats in front of him and asks in a soft voice, "What do you want to eat tonight? Whatever you like to eat, I will cook them for you."

Troy smiles, "Anything. As long as the food are cooked by you, I love them all."

"Okay then. Wait for me here."

Karin goes into the kitchen. And soon Troy hears crackling sounds coming from the kitchen. He curls up the corner of his lips and lies down on the sofa, preparing to take a nap.

It is unknown how long he has been sleeping. Then anxious calls ring in his ears, "Honey, wake up. Honey..."

He opens his eyes leisurely and sees his wife's worried face. Reaching out to poke her forehead, he says, "I just slept for a while. Why are you scared like this? Are you afraid that I won't wake up?"

"Don't talk nonsense."

She jumps into his arms and hugs him tightly, saying with palpitations, "Dinner is ready. Eat it while it's hot."
